Fragrance notes
Character
Saffron and pink pepper open this composition with a sharp, metallic heat that immediately feels dry rather than juicy. Raspberry appears alongside them, but it stays tart and restrained, never turning the entrance into a sweet fruit punch. Thyme adds a green, aromatic edge that keeps the spices from feeling heavy right away. As the initial spray settles, incense moves into the center with a smoky, resinous weight, while jasmine provides a slightly indolic floral softness that prevents the smoke from becoming too austere. The heart remains warm and spicy, leaning firmly into the aromatic and fresh spicy accords without losing its metallic sheen.
Leather and oud form a dense, animalic base that feels dark and slightly rough around the edges. Musk and amber smooth the sharper corners of the oud, adding a sweet, resinous warmth that lingers close to the skin. The overall texture is rich and unapologetic, suited to someone who enjoys bold, resinous materials and does not mind a prominent animalic presence. It works best when the air is cool enough to let the spices breathe without overwhelming the nose, pairing well with heavy knits and quiet, indoor settings. The fragrance feels grounded and serious throughout its development. Leather.
